Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“We recently did major renovations to our condo and have used Lookswell for multiple jobs. My experience with Lookswell is exactly what you would look for in a contractor — professional, honest and quality work. Lookswell initially painted our kitchen cabinets, and they did a beautiful job. Everyone walks into our home and mentions how great they are. I ended up calling them back because I needed tape and texture for a new wall we had installed. Both experiences were fantastic, and the quality of work was great. I would highly recommend using this company for your painting needs.” – Summer H.

“I personally guarantee that, if you have any problems with our work, labor or paint, we will redo the work at no charge to you with no questions asked. My goal is to add you to the list of our many repeat customers.”

Jim shared with us that he and his team give back to their community in many ways, including volunteering to paint classrooms, for Habitat for Humanity and to help with local charities.

Building Success Through Customer Service

Jim attributes Lookswell Painting Incorporated’s strong online reputation to their commitment to customer service:

“We hold our customers’ hands, from the start of the job to the end. Customers give us reviews on their own; we don’t ask them to.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Lookswell Painting Incorporated has gotten their name out there through advertising on Angie’s List and Google.
